Ths honors paid to Judge Thurman, wherever he goes, prove that he hasthe hearts of workingmen and will receive their votes.

At the close of last year the whites of foreign descent in this country numbered about 2S,ooo,ooo, and of American descent 24,000,000. The line dividing the two stocks is drawn at the year 1790, as a con venient and proper point, because at that time the political and social orgonization of the country was fairly settled, and the first census taken. The foreign stock now per ponderates, though saventeen years ago it was but little more than half the native stock. ' The Mail and Express declares that no train in the world averages a mile a min nte. including stops. There are many that average much higher than a mile a minute between stations,over long distances. There is no train that can becalled the fastest in the world, because some trains develop their remarkable speed over short courses, while other expresses, traveling hundreds of miles, show even greater speed at points, but do not present as high an average over the entire distance. The fastest short distance express in the world is what as the forty-five minute train, between Balti more and Washington, over the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. It goes over from Baltimore to Washington in the middle of the morning and returns in the middle of the afternoon, ft is a veritable thun derbolt, and usually consists of engine, two first-class passenger coaches and a parlor car. The 45 minute train covers the 40 miles of its journey, from station plat form to station platform, at an average speed of 53.33 miles per hour.

Their average height is 6 feet 2 inches and average weight 186 pounds. A younger son (16 yeas old) Is 6 feet 2 inches tall. A . North Carolina is -ncjt'boasful, yet she has enough to fill the measure of a na tion's tame.

The Wilmington &Wedon Railroad Co., have had a branch road surveyed from Tarboro via Snow Hill to Kinston, and we understand intend building it soon. The road if built will open up a large section of country, and will be a great benefit to the people along the line.
